How to insert a space after a formalpara title in DocBook FO?
Posted: Thu Dec 19, 2019 10:00 pm
Dear friends,
I'm having difficulty with FO output for DocBok <formalpara> markup. I want the FO processor to insert a space between the <title> of a <formalpara> and the <para> it contains, with no other punctuation.
Please refer to the attached image.
Here is the source code:
I have tried entering a space in the runinhead.default.title.end.punct paramenter, both through the Oxygen Transformation Scenario interface as well as in my FO.css customization layer, but it gets removed.
I've tried entering just a single space ( ), which gets removed. I've also tried a space in quotes (" ") and (' '), but that inserts the whole string of " " or ' ', including quotation marks. I've also tried defining a custom editor variable, such as ${space} whose value is a single space, but no results.
If I put in a colon followed by a space (: ), both the colon and the space are displayed. But simply entering a space ( ) does not display a space.
How can I insert a space between the title and the rest of the paragraph without adding it to the title in my source?
Thank you for any assistance.
Best regards,
Bob McIlvride

Code: Select all
<formalpara>
<title>This is the output</title>
<para>that I actually get.</para>
</formalpara>
<formalpara>
<title>The output I need </title>
<para>should look like this.</para>
</formalpara>
